THE VISIT OF THE MAGIES
Reading (2COR 11:1 -9)
Gospel (Matthew 23:29-24:2)
A Reading from the letter of Saint Paul to the Romans. (Romans 1: 1 – 12)
Brothers and Sisters, Paul, a servant of Jesus Christ, called to be an apostle, set apart for the
Gospel of God, which he promised beforehand through his prophets in the holy Scriptures,
the Gospel concerning his Son, who was descended from David according to the spirit of
holiness by resurrection from the dead, Jesus Christ our Lord, through whom we have
received grace and apostleship to bring about the obedience of faith among all the gentiles for
the sake of his name, including yourselves who are called to belong to Jesus Christ. To all
God’s beloved in Rome, who are called to be saints: Grace to you and peace from God our
Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. First, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for all of you,
because your faith is proclaimed throughout the world. For God, whom I serve with my spirit
by announcing the gospel of his Son, is my witness that without ceasing I remember you
always in my prayers, asking that by God’s will I may somehow at last succeed in coming to
you. For I am longing to see you so that I may share with you some spiritual gift to strengthen
you or rather so that we may be mutually encouraged by each other’s faith, both yours and
mind. I want you to know, brothers and sisters, that I have often intended to come to you, but
thus far have been prevented, in order that I may reap some harvest among you as I have
among the rest of the gentiles. I am a debtor both to Greeks and to barbarians, both to the
wise and to the foolish hence my eagerness to proclaim the gospel to you also who are in
Rome. For I am not ashamed of the gospel; it is the power of God for salvation to everyone
who has faith, to the Jew first and also to the Greek. For in it the righteousness of God is
revealed through faith for faith; as it is written, “The one who is righteous will live by faith.”
We welcome all parishioners back for another year of cooperation and
prosperity in our Lord, Jesus Christ. Our Lady of Peace pastor and
parishioners would like to welcome all visitors and families who are
new to the parish family.

A Reading from the Holy Gospel according to Saint Matthew (Matthew 1: 1 – 17)
The Book of the genealogy of Jesus Christ the son of David, the son of Abraham: Abraham

Judah the father of Perez and Zerah, whose mother was Tamar, Perez the father of Hezron,
Hezron the father of Ram, Ram the father of Amminadab, Amminadab the father of
Nahshon, Nahshon the father of Salmon, Salmon the father of Boaz, whose mother was
Rahab, Boaz the father of Obed, whose mother was Ruth, Obed the father of Jesse, and Jesse
the father of King David. David was the father of Solomon, whose mother had been Uriah's
wife, Solomon the father of Rehoboam, Rehoboam the father of Abijah, Abijah the father of
Asa, Asa the father of Jehoshaphat, Jehoshaphat the father of Jehoram, Jehoram the father of
Uzziah, Uzziah the father of Jotham, Jotham the father of Ahaz, Ahaz the father of Hezekiah,
Hezekiah the father of Manasseh, Manasseh the father of Amon, Amon the father of Josiah,
and Josiah the father of Jeconiahand his brothers at the time of the exile to Babylon. After the
exile to Babylon: Jeconiah was the father of Shealtiel, Shealtiel the father of
Zerubbabel, Zerubbabel the father of Abiud, Abiud the father of Eliakim, Eliakim the father
of Azor, Azor the father of Zadok, Zadok the father of Akim, Akim the father of Eliud, Eliud
the father of Eleazar, Eleazar the father of Matthan, Matthan the father of Jacob, and Jacob
